Yes, it is. The part we were rehearsing the whole time was to greet the President when he arrives to kick off the parade.

Thanks for the fun guys. Can't believe I could be able to be part of the parade.

Appreciate the marching instructions too. I know itâ€™s not easy to coordinate the movements, and to make sure the troopers are in step. (Especially when we don't see and hear too well in the drizzle rain.)

See you guys on the 15th. Lets' make the Empire proud!

Whitetrooper's not the limping trooper, bro. Whitetrooper is Andrew Toh, our new Garrison PR Officer.
The limping trooper was Sebastian. We'll be fixing up his leg pieces really soon. AND inserting sponge! lol

Woah woah woah it's gonna be a great event! Everyone looks like they're having fun. Argh I don't even think I can even watch the parade on TV this year, (though I got tickets for the past 3 years' parades and watched them live) on account of me having to work 25 hours everyday. (It's true now guess where I work

)

Waaaaaaaa I so wanna see the parade... it would be cool if someone got the president a force lightning machine so he could zap the fire crackers. Hahahahaa. Make this event good so the chingay pple will wnat us again next year then I can go too! (Or 4 years later after uni if I get into an overseas one) Maybe starwars.sg will have its own float then! (D'you think they'll lend us the rose parade ones?

) Someone record this event pls! *sobsob*

Hi Darsha...we're having it recorded to DVD so no worries.

Darsha Assant · Post by **Darsha Assant** » Mon Feb 04, 2008 10:03 am

I henceforth reserve one immediately.
